I wasn't sure if I'd have the energy to squeak out halloween costumes this year, but after finding out what Logan wanted to be, and the sticker shock of the costumes in store, I decided to go for it! My kids are still little, so I'm thankful that we still get to be "themey" with our costumes. Logan is picky about what she wants, but Brody will go with just about any costume that makes him some kind of hero.
So, this year, we went with Cinderella and Prince Charming.
Logan especially loved the jewels we added to her fingerless gloves. It just seemed to turn on the princess in her.
She's growing up too fast, I tell ya!
I wasn't even sure how I was going to sew the skirt and the top together because there was so much satin costume fabric, but it made for a great spinning skirt when it all came together!
Brody was thrilled that he got to carry a sword. He's been calling himself "Prince Charmin" now for days. (ruler of the land of toilet paper?)
I've never really done any boy tops so I was a little nervous about how this would come together and really had no back up plan since you can't find Prince Charming costumes in store. Thankfully, other than measuring a little off and having to add some fabric to the jacket, it turned out ok!
Don't mess with this boy's sister. He wields a mean sword and can destroy you.
Or all of the dragons, since that's what he fights on a regular basis.
Both kids played their characters very well at the Fall Festival we went to.
I'm trying to soak every moment of these little years in. I know they'll be gone before I can blink.
I'm wondering what next year will bring with another little one to costume....
Logan is still bound and determined that they'll all be in Disney attire. I guess we'll find out!!
